While the performance procerus the public looks on with cer­ tain interest, in most instances una­ ware that it is the public that is final­ ly gulled in the end* Over in Franklin county is a race course where open gambling i3 going on in a new form . The ministers o f Cclumbus celled upon the sheriff to put a stop to it. The .sheriff replied that he would i f asked to by Gov. Donahey* Attorney General Crabbe saw hia opportunity fo r campaign publicity and wrote Gov, Donahey; urging him to take a hand but at tile same time protecting his official position with the statement that he had no power to call a grand jury. The Gov. wrote back quoting the sections o f the lawman unusual event fo r the Gov. to advise the Attorney General on points o f law, that lie was powerless to remove a sheriff only when that official was lax in enforc­ ing the prohibition laws. The pert statement o f Donahey to Crabbe was that is was his duty to file charges as a citizen if he knew there was gamb­ ling going on at this race course. A t this date Crabbe has not replied. The race course is open dail^c and in full operation while the sheriff, attorney general and governor attempt to pass ♦the buck" and try to grandstand the public. A few weeks ago the state was startled at federal indictments o f 70 officei-3 in Hamilton county, As a re­ sult these men plead gu ilty or were found gu ilty and a re, now serving time. I t developed that the sheriff in Hamilton county owned property that was not only used fo r bootlegging pur poses, but fo r immoral use as well. A grand jury found an indictment a- gainst the sheriff. The prosecutor openly stated that he could not pros­ ecute’ the sheriff owing to official re­ lations. Attorney •General Crabbe was asked to perform.that duty. The case was gone into and Crabbe ahnounced that evidence did not warrant a trial. The ministers o f Hamilton county pressed Crabbe bo act; and another in­ vestigation* was mode and. Crabbe an­ nounced again that the second inves tigation made if? positive that no proof could be found. More grand standing and the sheriff goes free as Crabbe jrges the prosecutor to nolle the in dlctment. No ode has y e t announced that there has been any change in the habitants o f the sheriffs property, It is not safe fo r an office holder to rule that evidence is evidence in a county like Hamilton, however it would be sufficient in a rural county, .The game kind o f itch that has be come contagious in other counties has found its victims in Greene county, I f we read political history aright the art o f /‘grand-standing” must have originated in Greene county. Poli ticians here school themselves in this art and we have had a fine examine Of it the past ten days in the gambl ing cases. , For ten years the kind o f gambling that has just been discovered has been going on openly before the pub lie. So fa r we suppose it has cost the county $1,000 or more to find out something that most every citizen in the county seat knew existed. No high priced detective was necessary. I t was known in. Cedarville And ‘the Mayor asked the Prosecutor fo r aid on tho request o f council. A t that time the village officials were’ informed that the games were not gambling and of course the matter was dropped. The time fo r grand-standing ar­ rived and the Frocecutor started his crusade and his detectives filed many charges, more than fifty. Only seven cases Were pushed. During the hear­ ing o f one o f them tho question was asked o f the Prosecutor why only these few eases were being tried when dicrc were so many others operating ihe same kind o f a game. Another pertinent question could be asked as to why charges were only being filed against anti-Klan operators and none against the Klan operators? N o excuse or defense can be’ offered fo r those operating these games. The public has a right to know why Proa- ecutcr Marshall doer, not go on with she additional cases? Klan or anti- Khn . What about Sunday baseball? Sunday g o lf? No high priced detee laves needed to, secure evidence fo r either.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—Tho Use of the Bible In Evan­ gelism, I* Philip Meeting the Ethiopian <w, 2G-30a). 1. Leaving Work by Divine Direc­ tion (v. 26), The Lord' called Plilllp away from a. great work in Samaria and specif! cally directed-him to this map. Abrn- hawlike, he obeyed the divine com­ mand not knowing why he should leave the work-in Samaria and go into a desert place. As he journeyed On by faith he espied tee state chariot of tMte Ethiopian treasurer. The Spirit of God directed him to go near and join himself to the chariot. The tact­ ful question put to the treasurer gained him a seat by the side of tills dignified officer. The mission which at first seemed so unpromising was now clear, . 2. An Officer of State Seeking the Way of Salvation (vv. 2T-2S). The Ethiopian had been to Jerusa­ lem to worship. Despite his high offi­ cial position, he was not ashamed of the worship of God, The journey from that fnr off country required much hardship and expense, but to the one whose soul yearns after God, this is all joy. ■ , 3. A Providential Meeting in- the Desert (vv* 29-30). The coming together of these two men was clearly the predetermined way of God. It ., Philip Preaching to th* Ethio­ pian (vv. SOb-SS). ■ 1* The Ethiopian’s Employment on the Way (v{ 30). His occupation at the time Of tills meeting was reading the Word of God, At tlie invitation, of the Ethiopian Philip joined himself to tee chariot and found hUu reading from the 53d chapter of Isaiah. Tins Is a most ex­ cellent way to spend one's time while traveling, 2. The Absolute Keed Of a Preacher (v. 81), The Ethiopian was rending one of the clearest testimonies to tlie Messiah in the Old Testament, yet he was un­ able to get anything out of it. The fact that the Ethiopian, a great states­ man, needed an interpreter of tee Scriptures, even sucli a-.plain passage as the 53d chapter of Isaiah, shows the absolute need of a preacher. The gos­ pel must be experienced before one can be a witness to Its. saving power. Tlie human mind Is blind to spiritual things, making the work of an evan­ gelist indispensable. If a statesman of this rank was unable to grasp the meaning of such a clear passage, Jt should not be thought strange that for the rank and file o f men a guide Is needed. God lias designed that through the foolishness of preaching the world should be saved. Preaching the Word of God will always be necessary. A Philip's Message (vv. 32-35). He began at the Scriptures which the Ethiopian was reading and preached unto him Jesus. This shows us that the person represented in the 58d chapter of Isaiah Us suffering in­ stead of others was Jesus instead of Israel, also that the central theme of the preacher’s message should be Jesus. He did not preach Jesus ns a great teacher, but as a Savior who had suffered and died instead of din­ ners, He preached Him as the one wlio had offered Himself as a ransom. III. Philip B*pt!z«d th* Ethiopian (W, 86-38), As a result of Philip's preaching the eunuch proposed baptism. When Christ is truly preached, men naturally desire to confess Him In baptism. Where this feeling is lacking, the gos­ pel in its fullness is evidently not preached. The Ethiopian might have offered many excuses for neglecting this important ordinance, but like every man who is honest before God, he waft ifitng at any cost to render obedience. Tlie proof that men really believe in Jesus is their willingness to reader obedience to His Word, It is faith In Christ tlmt saves, but those who have genuine faith desire to Seal It In baptism. Having Secured from the Ethiopian tlie proper confession, Philip baptized him, • IV, Th* Ethiopian Rejoicing (v. 30), Confession of Christ always brings Joy, Those who obey tee command­ ment of the Lord can go on their way rejoicing. ’Truth 1' Truth is as impossible to be soiled ! by any outward touch as the sunbeam. > “ -Milton, ] “Are you going to the College Min­ strel Bhour, Giduse?" —“ Of course ITS TIME TO PLANT MONEY . ; .

Pogue Company first opened its doors, Mr. Henry Pogue and Mr. Samuel Pogue themselves, probably stood at the front door, to welcome their friends and neighbors—with hospitable smiles and "cor­ dial hand-clasps. On May 1,1925,when theH.& S.Pogue Com­ pany begins its 62ndAnniversary Sale—cele­ brating sixty-two years of honest and success­ ful merchandising—it extendsthis same genial welcome, in spirit, to all its patrons, associates . and neighbors. And it will greet you with values, the worth cL which will well warrant even a special trip to this celebration. “A people which takes iio pride in the nobleachievementsof theirancestors, will never achieve anything worthy to be remembered themselves.” Macaulay AU putchme* sent free o f charge TireH&S.
